Yea, I saw mostly red ones on line. Thanks

Thank you, hope we can all rise up together in this crazy world.

Actually it is just tape to prevent my fingernail from being sanded off when i am doing silver jewelry. Thanks Poppins!

Sugar might help, chili lime and salt could make it more palatable

Theobroma Bi-color is the only botanical name I have seen for this plant. Many common names.

I have some right now and would need to ship them soon to remain viable. Shipping costs around $10.50 lately. Message my etsy account at; Our Beautiful Kauai and we can go from there. Average seed goes for $10 each on line. I could do 6 for $30. Very hardy chocolate tree, takes well to bending, pruning and abuse. Drops fruit when ready.

How do you know that????

I have been growing them in full sun. Seems to do better than ones in shaded spaces.

Thank you so much for the good vibes! Every day my mind is blown away by nature. Our presence in nature, in the Now, is time salvaged from the abyss. Good food equals good vibes! Please have a pleasant meal with some good people in a beautiful place! Aloha!

nope, no seed. this is Fei'i Afara, very easy to eat but very different. Susceptible to Bunchy Top Virus! Can sell through our etsy page if you would like; "Our beautiful Kauai". Just let me know and I will list it. This month I am on Hawaiian time so it will take me a moment to get back to you. Aloha!

Someday my friend!

We could work something out. As you can see, I have access to some rare varieties of plants. We love to see seeds finding a home. Seeds are, of course, seasonal and plants come through our group on occasion that that do well/best from cuttings. Drop me an email to correspond further. i don't use a smart phone! Aloha.

I mean what part of the island

@@Tefoe North Shore, Hanalei area. Glad to see you are a banana lover also. Aloha!

My brother lives over there somewhere same island. I've never been to any of the Islands and without using Google i heave zero knowledge of any of the geography over there. I am a huge banana lover. We're attempting to collect as many varieties as possible and open a banana botanical gardens over here in Florida.

Thanks, Aloha!

Not all bananas produce pilali, just so you know. Always check new varieties! Aloha!

Maybe, but don't trust the names from nurseries! Maolis can be sourced from Florida, and Tongan bananas can be very close in quality also. I could sell pups but it would be pricey and they stand a chance of falling to local banana diseases. Aloha!

@@gorillapermacuture thanks for the reply. I am also looking for Kava Kava Awa plants. We are about to put up tall hightunnels for banana production. The heating cost will be minimal. I see it as part of the future of Agriculture here in the South East. Mahalo

Thank you and Aloha!

Thanks brother!

ROOTS!

Aloha my friend and thank you. I grew up in Seattle. Ballard 92. We had a cabin on highway 2 near Index. Clam digging, wading for crab, bird hunting in E. Wa, P.S.M.S. etc. Got my roots in N.W. ethnobotany.

The West side of Kauai has seen a lot of GMO and associated chemicals so I would not rule out the chance that those chems may have advance the likelihood of beak deformities. I believe the these were both related to what happened in the first few hours after hatching. If addressed, they might have looked somewhat normal in adulthood.

Nope, canoe plants brought at different times throughout the migration. Over hundreds of years of close cultivation many new varieties developed and were grown out. Bananas can produce new mutations somewhat often. There are a number of varieties of Ele Ele in the Hawaiian islands and other types of bananas in the world that develop black or red to their trunks. I know of three different Ele Ele in my area and a black trunk Balbisiana down the road. There is some suspect that banana seed might have made it to Hawaii in birds. Aloha!

@@gorillapermacuture aroha 🤙

Thanks!!

Got plenty up with the vanillas but they aren't producing seed well due to lack of full sun. They really like full exposure. The green ripe make good edamame.

@@gorillapermacuture nice. I have about 30 trees flowering and producing about 10ft tall

Does he sell plants? Where?

Are you on Kauai? I can ship rare seed and banana pups. Bananas are a little pricey because of the work packaging and fastest shipping, plus rarity.

@@gorillapermacuture I know you, we have met. We even live close to each other... I'd love to come to you for banana, etc.

@@Violet_Lotus_ Try and swing by Hanalei farmers market on any Saturday. I have the only N.shore produce booth. We can go from there. I have a lot of cool rare plant that need homes. Aloha!

@@gorillapermacuture ok! I'll see you next Sat!!

Well aloha and thanks! I started the channel for our mainland family but I am also featuring rare plants and their uses. You can also visit the Food Forest in Kilauea to learn more about plants and meet great people, get starts etc.
